This TAS was fun to make. It was also challenging, since I am blind and can't see anything. I was able to use Ram watch to find my times and see if they matched or improved previous TASes.

Nice work, yes vote! As for SGB in Gambatte, I don't really like the idea. BizHawk already has an SGB core that actually plays the whole Bios startup (including the sound) before going into the game. If we are going for accuracy, I feel like this is close, but not quite the answer.

While the sounds and music aren't that great, the TAS was well made. Yes vote!

I voted no because it was slower, but after reading through the submission text a few more times, I am happy to say nice work!

I have only gone through the front page as of now, but I have some things to say about it. I like having the log in and search at the very top, like the current (old) site, but I really like the date format of the new one a lot better. I like having the console at the beginning of the movie names better (this is on the old site.) I think having the branch information there is helpful so I know whether to press Enter or not. I also like having the latest news as heading level 2 (old site) rather than 3, and the news items as 3 rather than 5. I like the format of the latest submissions on the old site better, too. All in all, I like the front page of the old (current) site a bit better.

I'm copying here what I wrote for the previous submission, and modifying it slightly With sound being all I have (since I am totally blind), I would give this a no vote. The music is very repetitive and doesn't sound all that great for me, and the sounds aren't that great either. While it seems like a lot of work was put into this, the music and sounds don't make this TAS interesting for me. However, reading through the submission comments and finding that the game is beaten a lot quicker makes this more technically interesting. I am giving this a yes vote for technical quality this time, nice work!

I know this is a really old topic, but I really don't think GameWorld1 deserves to be banned from the site. If he wants to make TASes of games and submit them, I think he should be able to. If they're optimized, I think he deserves the chance to have his future runs published.

Yes vote. I think I can find a few frames of improvement through optimization.

Nice, yes vote! I'd consider this an improvement, with the lag reduction techniques. I am starting to think the "loss" may be due to emulation differences.

Nice improvement, yes vote. Why did you put The description is way too short..."" four times? I don't understand why that had to be in there.

I have a question about the canceling message. Isn't maximum score acceptable category? I'm pretty sure there are maximum score publications. I really think this could be one of them.

This is a cool game and TAS, yes vote! I do not see this as trivial, for the reasons in this discussion and submission text. I believe it should be published.

I'm actually not sure what to vote here. From the graphic of the comparison (read by my screen reader), some parts seem longer, but some are shorter.

Nice improvement, yes vote! I hope that there will be a published TAS that gets the ending with the right music, as the ending theme is my favorite from this game.

I guess it wasn't really a "confirmed improvement"... Really though, nice improvement!

Wait a minute, isn't this "game end glitch", not "save glitch"? I'm confused.

After thinking about it for a while, I've decided to give this a yes vote. It does get to the credits, even though there is no way for me to know without someone else telling me. I understand that it's hard to get the ending music to play with the glitch used, and this is faster than the previous submission.

I figured Charmander would be slower, since he hasn't been used in glitchless runs.

Yes vote! Is Paras still faster than Sandshrew? I know that Sandshrew has a faster cry, for a faster E4 deposit, but I don't know.

Sorry for posting that twice. My computer and screen reader were going crazy and I couldn't tell my post was already there.

Oof... That's a shame. Since I can't see, the only way I know this TAS gets to the ending is the comments. Since it's quite a bit faster, I wanted to check if I could tell this actually got to the ending, but I originally thought that it just softlocked at the end. Oh well, I guess if I want to listen to a TAS that actually plays the ending music, I'll have to go with the canceled submission...
